I forgot that since James is in Edmonton and his car is chillin’ at the airport, I had to fend for myself getting home from Langley. I’d brought my bike and my laundry, then bought a bunch of yarn and 8 pounds of jeans. Can’t ride back with all that. I found out that I [...]
Or more specifically, my favourite music store. aka Krazy Bob’s Music Emporium. The guy’s an insane geek who sells mostly vinyl, wears rainbow tye-dyed shirts, and makes fun of everyone who comes in. I asked about Dance Mix ’92 and he didn’t have it, so I bought two Rufus Wainwright albums instead. He threw some [...]
James and I ate raw green beans for dinner last night and then went to Jericho Beach around sunset. We sat on a log knitting (well, I was knitting…) until it got too chilly for me and my tank top. Funny since it had been so hot when I got home from work, but I [...]
I’m super proud of myself for pulling off the 1 1/2 front somersaults on the one metre springboard today. It’s been so long since I practiced seriously.
I went to Value Village on saturday and got brown cords, a belt, a sweet little skirt, and two green tank tops. One’s way too small and has purple butterflies on it. I think it was made for a child but what the hell, it was only a dollar. I went to the Bible store [...]
I have a sore throat and a fever and my sinuses are buggered up. So I’m staying home to prevent spreading contagion around the office. I might go shopping. James and I watched some sweet sweet penguin love last night, as told by Morgan Freeman. It was the only documentary I could get him to [...]
I missed the staff meeting today. It was nice and sunny and warm and I went outside to get some food and do whatever work I had that was portable. Forgot to check my watch. Yesterday I planted my (container) garden – I have spinach, arugula, mesclun mix, strawberries, broccoli, eggplant, leeks, and peas. I [...]
I worked all weekend building a shed for my boyfriend’s mom. She got some shed kit that has all the wood, shingles, nails, etc. and the instructions, and then you do all the work. And by “you” I mean “me and James.” We finished all of it except the roof, which will have to be [...]
I rode my bike to work today, thinking that since it was so nice yesterday it would be today too. boo. It was rainy! and cold. But it’s nice now, so I think after I am done typing this I will take a walk. Tomorrow I am meeting my ex for lunch and it makes [...]
At some point during the night, the wet wet snow turned into fluffy real snow. Not sure when I got up and zombied my way into the bathroom, lumbering past the kitchen window and thinking, “Am I dreaming?” It’s still snowing now, and there’s 2-3 inches. This is ridiculously unusual in Vancouver in March. I [...]
